The event will raise funds for the center's services for those less fortunate, a news release said.

The adult meal will have corned beef and cabbage, a drink and ice cream, and the kids' meal will feature a hot dog, beans, bag of potato chips, a drink and ice cream.

The meals are also available for take-out.

Raffle tickets will be sold throughout the event, and the winner will be announced at the end of the evening. The winner must be present to accept the prize.

The release said in 2023 the center provided roughly 110,575 meals, 27,262 bed-nights of shelter, 411 bed-nights for those needing medical respite and distributed 23,435 items such as clothing, toiletry kits, bedding and bags to 3,018 people.
